Default Headlights

What's up Ya'll, I had a question about my headlights I know this sound like a dumb question but, Ima ask any way. Both of my headlights are out but I can still use my highs, my question is before the lows went out they would flicker, then after they warmed up they would stay on but now they don't work at all, could it be that they both headlights are out and need to be replaced or could their be short somewhere? (I havent changed them yet because I dont know if they need to be) 02 civic ex

It may be the crappy OEM grease filled harness/plug. Check that and go from there.

The low and high beams are 2 different wires in the bulb itself. Can you try out someone's bulbs to see?

Low beams are a low intentsity wire and the high beams are a higher intentsity wire (this being from memory of course). Just like a 3 way light bulb in your house, you will notice 3 wires inside the bulb.

could possibly that both your low beam filament is blown. Pull the bulb to see if the filaments are ok.
